Ministry through Music :: I Can Only Imagine

These last several weeks I've been spending more time meditating on God and His Word! With the Christmas holiday approaching, I have found that it is so easy to get caught up in the holiday festivities to include shopping, gifting, parties, etc. Not to say that these festivities aren't fun and enjoyable, but they can cause some added stress trying to meet the needs or better yet..."wants" and demands of the season. I had to check myself and take a step back to really look at why we celebrate Christmas. Isn't Jesus the reason for the Season? Are we taking time to really look at who He is and His glory? Are we using this season to share His gospel and tell others about Him?

Tamela Mann's "I Can Only Imagine" was playing while I was thinking about all of this and her lyrics really stirred my spirit to think about what it would be like to meet Christ...stand by Him. Christ was born so that we could have salvation, life, and to see His glory! That is what the season is about....REJOICING IN CHRIST.....for the savior was born! This Christmas will you celebrate the one true king? Will you stand in His presence? Will you fall to your knees and give Him praises? Will you sing Hallelujah?

{LYRICS}

I can only imagine,I can only imagine
what it would be like
When I walk, by your side
I can only imagine,
What my eyes would see,
When your face is before me
I can only imagine, only imagine

To be surrounded by your glory
What will my heart feel
Will i dance for you Jesus
Or In awe of you be still
Will i stand in your presence
To my knees will I fall
Will i sing hallelujah
Will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine, I can only imagine

I can only imagine, when that day comes
And i find myself standing in the sun
I can only imagine,when all i will do
Is forever worship you
I can only imagine, i can only imagine

To be surrounded by your glory
What will my heart feel
Will i dance for you Jesus
Or In awe of you be still
Will i stand in your presence
To my knees I will fall
Will i sing hallelujah
Will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine, I can only imagine
